Viewport frame help

Im trying to make a gui where upon joining the text displays the players name and the viewportframe shows the players avatar. I got the name part down, but I just cant get the avatar bust to work.

I started with an avatarthumbnail but since i apply custom clothing to the player it doesnt show up in the thumbnail, so i switched to a viewportframe and i just cant figure it out.

the problem is that its warning that it failed to clone character like I set up

please help, thanks!

and sorry if this is something really simple that i just missed.

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local player = Players.LocalPlayer

local GUI = script.Parent
local HUD = GUI.HUD

local BustLabel = HUD.bust
local NameText = HUD.NameFrame.TextLabel

function SetName()
	NameText.Text = player.Name
end

function SetBust()
	if not player.Character then
		player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	end
	
	print("set bust")
	for _, child in ipairs(BustLabel:GetChildren()) do
		if child:IsA("Model") then
			child:Destroy()
		end
	end
	
	local success, charClone = pcall(function()
		return player.Character:Clone()
	end)
	
	if not success or not charClone then
		warn("Failed to clone character")
		return
	end
	
	print("character cloned")
	
	for _, object in ipairs(charClone:GetDescendants()) do
		if object:IsA("Script") or object:IsA("LocalScript") then
			object:Destroy()
		end
	end
	
	print("remove scripts")
	
	for _, object in ipairs(charClone:GetDescendants()) do
		if object:IsA("BasePart") then
			object.Anchored = true
		end
	end
	
	print("character anchored")
	
	charClone.Parent = BustLabel
	
	local camera = Instance.new("Camera")
	camera.Parent = BustLabel
	
	local root = charClone:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
	local focusPos = root and root.Position + Vector3.new(0, 2, 0) or Vector3.new(0, 2, 0)
	camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(focusPos + Vector3.new(0, 0, 5), focusPos)
	
	BustLabel.CurrentCamera = camera

	print("done")
end

SetName()
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(SetBust)

replace this with

	if not success then
		warn("Failed to clone character")
		return
	end
